I don't think he understands quite how good at this game he is.

Mike Rogge Agreed.

Agreed he is good but he should slooooooooow dooooooown lol great video

Try putting playback speed on slower if you can still understand what he’s saying

youy can slow down the video with slow mo and replay it however many times you want. keep in mind this is already a 15 minute video so like a couple hour upload time. do you really want it to be longer?

I'd requested this one about 3 times now, I'm pretty pleased.

Same here

I've not managed to get this to work, did you guys?

Did it get posted with the speedboat? I love this as it makes the control of more complex vessels far less complex.

Me too.

The game is well worth it, when they go full release it should be a 100$ + game

Use switchboxes, gonna assume you already know today, dont care, or just wont see this, but here it is

Slick Rick imma try to build that! Sounds like a viable weapon idea.

@@peerebeer4507 Nice to hear that but the idea is pretty old This is why i was confused there are no gauss cannons in stormworks It would be a lost opportunity

you might be interested in From the Depths, which is a militaristic boat building game.

I feel the same however he is a bit fast explaining but also has other tutorials for basic logic components

I got lost when he started lol, but I watch it anyway

@@403.FORBIDDEN Yeah, Im still trying to figure out gearboxes, Im not good with math by anymeans, it was always my worst subject back in school. I can do finance but any of the other crap forget about it. so when it comes to Ratios and such, makes no sense to me. I keep watching and keep trying to make a ship with a gear box but it never works, when when trying to copy what another has done of a video I never get it right. Made a sub just the other night, small, I can sink it but it wont raise up...got the pumps everything is hooked up so idk

He made it so that the clutch will equal 0 when your throttle is below 0.20. So even if youre going 40 mph and drop the throttle to 0, the clutch will also do the same. A simple way is to add an AND block that receives two thresholds (that you desire) from the RPS and the throttle, then connect it to the Down to the Up Down Logic

probably try adding a capacitor inbetween the clutch inputs

same here

Try this In the up and down counter Make the threshold gate of clutch at 0 to. 20 connected to the 'up' node and. 20 to 0 to down counter MrNJersey cut that scene where he repaired it

@@luckyizzac This isn't correct within the scope of this game. I appreciate that in a car IRL you "let the clutch up" to get rolling, but here, the tutorial is correct, in that if the clutch is letting power through the driveshaft when there are no revs, and not letting it through when you rev up, you're going to be going nowhere. That said, I'm still having this issue and would love to see the solution to this.

​@@paddy5423sorry 3 years later, I see where I went wrong

hmm.. even with throttle setting correponding to the -1/1 values of the engines - they always want to go all in ?

Join my discord and post a link, one of the community can take a look and help

I know it's been a few days so maybe you've found the answer already, but in case: The gearbox always reduces gears in the direction of the arrows, so to get more revs from the prop you just install the gearbox backwards, so the arrow faces the engine.

add a gearbox at the end with 1:1 or 1:-1 and just add a button to it to toggle. shouldn't need to be too complicated but you rarely reverse anyway. Hopefully I'm not too late :D

I've been trying to do this in the microcontroller so its auto when u hold s but I cant get my head around it

MooseNoodles Depending on how you have it set up. Then you could just have a less-than gate say “if w/s is less than 0” and hook it up to a reverse gearbox.

Wouldn’t even need a micro controller :)

@@Moosey.47 what about discord or steam?

Why does it not work in a microprocessor?

microprocessor is the exact same as not in a microprocessor

i chance my mind i will use 1 lever

Yes Its the clutch

Try this In the up and down counter Make the threshold gate of clutch at 0 to. 20 connected to the 'up' node and. 20 to 0 to down counter MrNJersey cut that scene where he repaired it

your clutch has to be more slippy then, maybe make the increments smaller? You could also try making the clutch engage based on engine RPMS as that would be way smoother I think, and that way it should never stall.

0xsergy thanks for a solid response. Will definitely check this out. Thanks mate

@@dIIFEO im trying to figure a system out now. If you do thesholds based on engine rpm it kinda cycles the clutch in and out which isn't ideal. You've just gotta play with the logic stuff until you have a smooth clutch

He already made an auto pilot turtorial

Josip Ozimec use atan to get the radians.

I mean... Are there 2 Clutches? one per Gearbox?

It’s very easy. Connect the engine RPS input to your engine’s RPS output, connect Throttle input to your throttle lever’s output, and connect the kill switch to a push button. Next connect the engine throttle output to your engine throttle input, connect the clutch output to your clutch and connect the gearbox 1 and 2 outputs to your respective 2 gearboxes. Set up those gearboxes just like you did when you were switching gears manually. Then just press your normal engine starter button and watch it switch your gears (relatively) smoothly and efficiently! PS. Yes, only one clutch for the pair of gearboxes.

@@joelmulderThank you Joel. I know how to connect up the microcontraoller. So, if there's one clutch, do you just connect both gearboxes in serial? or do you split the clutch with a T junction and add the gearboxes in parallel?

Rob Murray If there’s one clutch, you link the clutch output to the input of set clutch. If you’re talking about the piping, then you indeed just hook them up in serial. Hooking them up in parallel will probably also still work, but the effect will be lessened. When hooked up in parallel, you won’t be “amplifying” the previous gears. (That is if hooking them up in parallel even works properly, i haven’t tried.) The way i usually have my gearboxes is that i get the first one’s first value set to 1:1, and have the second value set to whatever works for the setup (takes some trail and error to find it, but it often ends up being 1:3 if you’ve got plenty of spare power). The second gearbox, which i link straight into the first one usually has a first value that is the highest i can set it before my performance decreases when accelerating, and again the second gear set to whatever’s appropriate. I’m sure there’s a better way to determine this, but it’s alluded me so far, so trail and error it will be. Note that the gearbox’s directions are both pointed into the engine to achieve more speed. Point them away for more torque.

You would need invert the throttle once is goes into negative and then a reverse gearbox. Will add reverse to mine and upload the controller

@@MrNJersey Thanks man! Your videos are the best and one day I hope to bring my creations to the workshop! I would also like you to make a car ferry tutorial, I made a rough shell of a ferry and it just sinks ;( Maybe with all of your know how you could make it into something functional? Thanks ;)

Uploaded to the WS

@@MrNJersey Okay, and I will send you the link...

@@MrNJersey Here is the link to my creation in the WS steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1636880462

@@joelmulder Heres the thing How do you do that With seat throttle control Not throttle Lever
